President/Chief Geologist Quinton Hennigh said, “Until recently our drilling was too widely spaced to adequately evaluate the higher grade gold mineralization at North Stock. With the completion of our 2010 drilling program, we now have intersections across most of the North Stock gold zone at 50 metre spacing. As a result, we are starting to see that some of the high grade intersections in the early drill holes appear to tie together with the more recent intersections. We therefore believe that we will be able to do a much better job of modeling these high grade structures once we have all the assay results from our 2010 program.”
